Default Re: Block welding

Ted Ford cast iron welds extremly well the Weldwell products are readily available but the sticks are not cheap due to the nickel content.I have used cast iron rods with excellent results also Brazing works just fine the secret is preparation pre heat and post heat eveness in the heating procedure to prevent distortion. If you dont have the expertise yourself why not shop it out but very few welders these days have the knowledge to handle cast iron mostly us older blokes so check it out.
